Joe's absolutely right and glad he has the strength of character to continue what he's doing. The quality of the football is far better than it has been for a long time and the whole club are settled into playing this way, i.e. pass and move with a higher tempo. It's just a matter of time before we spank someone and Paul Dickov's comments today are an example of this;
“They’re down there, but I watched their game against Notts County but how they didn’t win I’ll never know,” he said.
“They’re an attack-minded team with plenty of players who like to get forward so we’ll have to be on our guard defensively.
“Looking at their position and them being down there means nothing at this stage of the season.”
Let's get a good crowd tomorrow, have a go at them and hope the shots fly in this time. Up the U's!

I think he is acutely aware of the negativity and that I think is a shame because it doesn't reflect he general positive attitude of the majority.
My opinion remains that he is doing a good job in difficult circumstances and I would like to think he knows the majority of fans are supportive, positive and realistic.
Fancy a 3-1 victory myself tomorow.

Some individuals on here seem to be far too optimistic about Joe Dunne's ability. I am a true, honest guy who has been watching the U's for 5 decades and whilst I admire his positivity, he needs to be realistic and say that we need a win desperately! One point from a possible nine is not a good start. Of course I like many others want my beloved U's to do well but I don't see anything changing. I keep the faith, have another season ticket but really don't see where the goals are going to come from. At the moment I am worried as nothing has changed from last season and lessons like poor finishing and defensive lapses cost us victories and points and haven't been learned. I hope today Joe proves me and many doubters wrong! It will be a good test against former Championship opposition - I only hope he does not use those factors as an opportunity to make excuses when we have the after-match comments if we don't perform as we would like. Come on Joe and Mark-prove me and many others wrong today!

Ozzie says he has been watching for 5 decades and I know many Us followers feel that they have been frozen out/too old. They can fill those empty seats-bring grandchildren and their mates-bringing life back to the Club.
